hrishikeshkatti Posted July 28, 2020 Report Share Posted July 28, 2020 Hello, I am currently in India and my fresh H1B petition was recently approved. But as we all know the consulates are closed and there's no specific timeline on when I can go for stamping. I read the EO in a way that only entry is restricted until December 31st and there are multiple interpretations on whether the visa can be stamped before December 31st. I am in a unique situation where I have a valid B1/B2 visa stamped and now H1B petition was approved. So I wanted to check whether I can travel on B1/B2, change the status after reaching there and start working. It would also be great if I can get clarification on timeline for visa stamping if consulate opens as well. Thank you very much. Quote Link to comment
gopalakrishnach Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 When you land at POE using B1/B2 since you already have H1B approved they might feel that you intend to migrate to USA and work. I advice talk to immigration lawyer and take decision. t would also be great if I can get clarification on timeline for visa stamping if consulate opens as well. --- sorry no FUTURE tellers, We do not have those gifts so far. No timelines. No one knows... Quote Link to comment
